King Henry VIII (28 июн 1491 г. – 28 июн 1547 г.)
Описание:
King Henry was the king on England in 1509 until 1549, he presised over the beginings of the English renaissance and the reformation.
Henry was an active king in those years, keeping a festive court, hunting, jousting, writing and playing music. He issued a book-length attack on Martin Luther’s church reforms that earned him the title “Defender of the Faith” from Pope Leo X. But the lack of a male heir—especially after he fathered a healthy illegitimate son, Henry FitzRoy, in 1519—gnawed at the king.
With the backing of the English parliament and clergy, Henry ultimately decided that he didn’t need the pope’s permission to rule on issues affecting the Church of England
